qtran04 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 I am glad that you have positive experience with them too. I like all the staffs @ Banogagi & Docfinder for their friendliness & helpfulness . I just had my 4th day follow up appointment today to remove the nose cast & outer stitches . They gave me a facial massage & it was really awesome & relaxing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qtran04 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 I had doctor Lee for Rhinoplasty. He explained the procedures really well . Of course I had Chloe & Antonia from the clinic & Eugenia from Docfinderkorea who translates for me the whole time . Dr.Lee also recommended the laser sculpt for my double chins & alar reduction on my nose so that my face can be balanced. So I got those procedures done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qtran04 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 Update : Day 1: consultation & surgery ( rhinoplasty, alar reduction & laser sculpt for double chins ) . Dr.Lee is my surgeon. Highly recommend him for his experience , detail & professionalism. Chloe & Antonia at the clinic translated for me & went over the recovering process . The surgery lasted about 3 hours. I was not under general anesthesia, just local & deep sleep , so I woke up 3 times during the procedures. I felt what they were performing on me but didn’t feel pain. Quickly felt back to sleep after those time waking up . I Arrived at 10 am , left the clinic @ 4:30pm with a little bit under sedative . Luckily my bff & Docfinderkorea were there to help me get to the apartment. Once I arrived to the apartment, I vomitted out the water & a little coagulated blood Eugenia from Docfinderkorea immediately contacted the clinic to ask about the problem , they said that it is nothing serious . She is really caring . She texted me later & checked on me. I felt fine after few hours & drank the delicious pumpkin juice & medicine & went to bed with elevated sleeping position. Woke up several times during the night but it was ok. Day 2 : swelling started just as the clinic said , it will get worsen after few days . Swelling level 6 out of 10. I didn’t feel any pain on my nose area but uncomfortable on my jaw . I ate some soft food but was hard to chew & open my mouth. The pumpkin juice really helps with filling the stomach before taking medicine . I went to the clinic for them to clean my stitches areas & show me how to clean . It was really painful because I had dry blood in my nose around the stitches & they have to clean it well . My tears came out even when I tried not to cry . On day 2 , my right nose was still actively bleeding. Day 3: the swelling is worst on this day 10/10 .Felt like my skin doesn’t have any more room to swell. But it s expected from what the clinic told me . I started seeing some bruises on my under eyes area. My eyes are much smaller because of swelling & I can not see everything so well . I went out for a walk as the clinic recommended, ate some soup , still find it was hard to open the mouth & was still painful. My nose stopped bleeding . Day 4 : the swelling has subsided. I came to the clinic in the afternoon to remove my nose cast & outer stitches . This part was not painful. They have me a very nice & relaxing facial cleansing & massage . They also gave me more pumpkin juice since I ran out & it is supposed to help with my swelling. I can see my high nose bridge & nice nose tip now . Dr. Lee did an amazing job . But my nose bridge s still swelling a lot so I can’t see the defined shape yet . I have to patiently waiting for the final result . I start getting very excited now. I can breath & feel better after the nose cast was removed . My lower jaw becomes less painful when chewing food now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qtran04 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 If you decide to get plastic surgery done in Korea , I highly recommend Docfinderkorea. They are free service for the patients . I did not have to pay anything to them .They provide all the information about the clinics in Korea & online consultation from the clinics that help you to chose the clinic you want . They pick you up at the airport, arrange the appointments , take you to the appointments , translate everything, & They try to answer any questions that you may have during your stay in Korea. You will also get discounts from the clinic through Docfinderkorea. The girls from Docfinderkorea are very nice & helpful in many ways. They are your friends in Korea . Docfinderkorea also bought prescription medicine for their clients. If I don’t have them, I don’t think I can go to Korea to do the surgery without speaking the language Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
